    BD Copy Besides NVIDIA CUDA...

    Are there any plans to support those of us who don't feel like owning an NVIDIA card by supporting more GPGPU open standards like OpenCL or DirectCompute? I know CUDA is part of the "popular kids" club, but how about the rest of us? I think all the ATI/AMD owners out there that use your product would feel the love if you did ;-)

    Thanx

    Isn't DXVA supported by ATI cards? I've tested the speed using Cuda and DXVA and encode time is about the same.

      DXVA is supported by DVDFab, and that's a part of "losers kids" club, or for the rest of you out there.

        It uses between 6-28% of my Radeon 5870 GPU and takes almost 6 hours to encode Inception from a BD to a .wmv file. Doesn't seem all that optimized to me. Are GeForce GTX470/480 cards getting the same performance limits?

          If Radeon cards support GPU accelerated encoding, that is news to me. I thought they just did DXVA decoding which, as you note, is not that big a deal.

            Hexen525,
            I do not have GTX470 nor 480 card, I have GTX295. On Inception I had around 40-43 fps conversion speed (took about hour and half for the entire movie conversion) with GPU load: abt. 5% for decoding and 25% for encoding, and abt. 50% load on CPU. I consider this speed on slow side because it's conversion from VC-1 to AVC, but on AVC to AVC compression I usually have 65 - 75 fps processing speed.

                  All my settings are high quality/slow speed, 1-pass. I converting all my videos into MKV, using mkv.h264.audiocopy profile (BD9 equivalent), with bits/pixel ratio around 0.20-0.30 range.

                    News flash ;-) Hehe.

                    All DX11 and up video cards have the power to do GPGPU computing. Even a nice stack of older DX10 cards too. Take a look at Folding@Home for a nice example. While NVIDIA cards do perform better than their AMD counterparts, Radeon cards still hold their own.

                    NVIDIA ran out and made a special program to harness the power in theirs (CUDA) and marketed the hell out of it. While AMD/ATI supported more open standards like OpenCL and DirectCompute.

                    Fast quote from the AMD Radeon 5870 page...
                    "ATI Stream acceleration technology
                    OpenCL support
                    DirectCompute 11
                    Double precision floating point processing support
                    Accelerated video encoding, transcoding, and upscaling
                    Native support for common video encoding instructions"

                    Link- http://www.amd.com/us/products/deskt...verview.aspx#2

                    Edit: K, I am using your settings mostly I think. mkv.h264 and I am getting about 30fps encoding. 15-25% GPU usage and all 4 cores of my CPU maxed. Going to take about 2 hours total acording to the timer in DVDFab. Maybe the output format has something to do with it?

                      The new beta version (8086) has some support for Radeon cards. Please see the release notes and try it.
